The economic wedge
Memory lowers token waste. Hosted open-weight inference lowers the price per token. The savings stack.

RecordorAI $15M Seed Plan
We make enterprise AI cheaper and more useful by giving it governed memory and a lower-cost inference path.

The short version
AI keeps forgetting. Companies keep paying for the same context twice.
RecordorAI gives enterprise AI systems a memory layer that retrieves the right context when it matters. The customer gets better answers, fewer wasted tokens, auditability, and a predictable enterprise bill.
The trust wedge
Customer memory is not stored in our cloud. Hosted inference receives only policy-filtered context, or runs on-prem for strict buyers.
The buyer wedge
Start with SaaS and AI-native platforms, then expand into regulated accounts where control and predictable spend matter more.
Use of funds
What the $15M actually buys
This version proves the business without trying to build the entire $22M plan at once. It funds a three-year plan for product, enterprise pilots, compliance, a small sales team, and starter infrastructure.
Hardware expansion only happens against signed contracts.

Three proof points before the next serious financing conversation
The round is not meant to buy scale forever. It is meant to prove that the enterprise wedge repeats.
$1M ARR
Launch the inference beta, convert 3 SaaS pilots, start SOC 2, and keep hardware spend tight.
$7M ARR
Turn pilots into production, add 15 SaaS customers and 2 regulated customers, complete SOC 2 Type II.
$24M ARR
Reach 50 SaaS customers, 6 regulated customers, 8 platform customers, and 25 inference subscriptions.
Return framing
Show the upside, but underwrite soberly
The clean base case is $24M ARR by Year 3. The underwrite can live at 8-12x ARR, with premium upside if RecordorAI becomes strategic AI infrastructure.
